Why are Ansible Jobs Matching Non Qualifying Hostnames when Limiting Hosts with Regex?
Issue
-
When limiting an Ansible job with regex, some hosts included in the job run may not match the qualifying regex.
Example of limiting hosts with regex:
#ansible-playbook -i hosts hello-world.yml -l '~^[^\s]{5}[dqt][^\s].*[d4]$'
Environment
- All Ansible versions when limit option is being used
